Does the standard model originate from the mathematics of empty space? 

We have a new paper on the arXiv, in which we link the spectral formulation of the standard model to a candidate for a fundamental theory based on the geometry of a configuration space. JESPER MØLLER GRIMSTRUP APR 07, 2025 Together with the mathematician Johannes Aastrup I have just posted a new paper on the arXiv,…Read more Does the standard model originate from the mathematics of empty space? 

The sociology of theoretical high-energy physics

Together with physicist and data analyst Jarl Sidelmann I have just posted a bibliometrical study of hep-th on the arXiv. In this post I will explain what we did and what we have found. In a new bibliometrical study we show that the levels of competition for survival in theoretical high-energy physics has increased dramatically during…Read more The sociology of theoretical high-energy physics

A new framework of unification

We have a new paper on the arXiv today in which we present a novel framework of unification in high-energy physics. In this newsletter I will give a non-technical presentation of our results Happy new year everyone! Johannes and myself have just posted a new paper on the arXiv in which we present a new framework of…Read more A new framework of unification

Newsletter 8/10 2024

Hi everyone, It’s finally time for a newsletter. Johannes and myself have just posted two new papers on the archive (you can find one here, the other one will appear in a few days. I’ll attach both of them to this newsletter). In these two papers we present a very simple and somewhat surprising result…Read more Newsletter 8/10 2024
